Bethlehem police released details this afternoon about the early morning standoff that ended when a 90-year-old city man killed himself -- including reports that the man fired 12 rounds out of the home, shooting at officers in the hallway and equipment outside.

Police say Story's wife, a woman identified in court records as Lois Story, was safely removed from the apartment. Residents in the area of the standoff were ordered to leave or shelter in place, according to police.

Authorities say Story was uncooperative with negotiators during the talks that lasted roughly five hours. At one point, police say, the 90-year-old man began firing his weapon. He fired on officers in the hallway of the apartment complex and at an electronic device being used by negotiators. Police say a squad car was also struck by gunfire a total of three times.

Incredibly, police say, no one was injured in the gunfire. Police Chief Mark DiLuzio said no Bethlehem police officers returned fire during the standoff.

"The Bethlehem police exercised an extreme amount of restraint after being fired upon," DiLuzio said. "Our intent was to end this in a nonviolent way."

Police entered the home at 2:45 a.m. after Story stopped communicating with officers, according to authorities. He was found dead inside, police say.

Police say the Lehigh County coroner is expected to formally identify the man after notifying his family. His death has been ruled a suicide, according to the coroner's office.
